The story of Hie yivir comprises n re- lilal of facts and figures which nfTord a ubstantlftl ba is for abiding coniidoncc n the bright dUlmy of this city. Tim magnitude of Omaha's commerce s forcibly shown by the clearing hou e cturns , bank deposits , wholesale trade uid railroad tmllie. Among thp thiily-two clearing house ? ities In the fulled States , Omaha ranks otirlcenth.

No other city in this country can point to an equal percentage. The increase in batik deposits is nolens marked. The banks ol Omaha have on leposit $13l.07i.l5 : ! , as against § 3,810- 000 at the end of ' 85. Tim jobbing trade of Omaha , dnrinc , according to the mosl reliable data , aggregates $ " 0,0"S15 ] , as against $211- 1)30,000 ) in 1885 , and $2-l533,8fll , ; In 181. In other words , the wholesale trade of Omalmit \ \ increased ? U,3 , > I,815 over the preceding year , which is equal to 31 per cent. Among the leading staples of Omaha's jobbing trade the trailio in lumber has assumed proportions winch plncu Omaha fourth in rank among Ameri can cities as u lumber jobbing market. T ho volume of our lumber trade dr.ring is computed at 270,300,000 feet or 24,100 car loads , for which the dealers have realized $ C-i05,000 , an increase of $2,000,000 oxer the preceding year , or about 50 per cent. This is more than diuiblo the quanlityof lumber handled by Kansas Cily dealers during Iho past year and almost equal to Minneapolis , the second largest lumber jobbing eily in the country. The increase in banking and jobbing houses In Omaha during the year has fully kept pace with our commercial anil financial expansion. Omaha hns taken high rank as an in dustrial center , and cbpcciallyus the com ing porkopolis of America. Within the year her packing house facilities have been enormously enlarged and several of the heaviest foreign porlc packers arc en gaged in the export of our beef nnd hog products. The pork packers of Oinuhu have slaughtered SJOJfiO hogs during the year , which arc quoted at a value of $ .1.7J7.170. ; The ycnr previous less than 100,000 hogs were packed in Omaha. The dressed beet' industry , developed through the establishment of the union stock yards , is destined to rival the pork packing interest. During the year pusl 03,272 , cuttle valued at $ , , trickery'f slaughtered at Omaha and exported in refrigerator cars. Manufacturing in Omaha , gives em ployment in various brunches of in dustry to over live thousand skilled workmen aud its products are estimated nt $20,011,232 , orOjU.918 ; ; with the value of the meat products added thereto. No city in the west aud few In the country can match Ouinha in the ex hibit of public Improvement ? made during the year. Over $300,000 hits been expended in street improvements alone and 1,390,400 has been paid out on public improvement * made by the city und by other public corporations. Omaha'3 substantial growth dining the past year is specially attested by the building record , which wo have compiled with ( jrcnt care. There have been con structed in the city during the year 101C buildings ol every description , at a cost of $5,024GS9 , as against 0,792.120 ex pended for building improvments during the year 1885. This is n superb exhibit for a city of eighty-five thousand pop uhUion. A. 1'lcce or IiiiputluitC'c. A mooting of the Onialiu freight bureau was called on Friday by Commissioner ( irill'etts to protest against the pas.sugo of the Ciillotn bill , as unfriendly to the in tercHts ot this section. The merchants of Omaha evidently did not BOO thu matter in the same light ns the commissioner. Although thu freight bureau is composed of over u hundred wholesale lirms , only twelve citizens guthorod at the meeting , Three of these represented no wholesale interests. In other words , nine mer chants of the city comprised the repre sentatives of the wholesale interests of this elly on that occasion , and of Unit number several wtro from the outset opposed to the object ot the meeting. After dubnting the subject of the long and Miort haul , the mooting udjourned , deferring notion "until a larger attendance could be had. " In the face of the fact that only nine wholesale houses were represented , that the object of the meeting was vigorously as.saileil by some of thn gcullcmon pres ent , and that no action whatever was taken on the subject , Commissioner Griffons fens had the amazing hupiulunco to KCIU ! n dispatch to Washington stating tliut "The Oniulia Freight Hitcan ] , composed ot over ono hundred wholesale houses , do in meetlni ; assembled eaiuestly pi cleat nyalnal the passage. In Its present shape , ef tliu po in ? bill to regulate inter-state trafllc , " This dispatch , which was directed to Senator Manderson nud Ilia Nobraskr delegation , is u fraud on its face. The Ouuua freight bureau did not assemble. It passed no resolu lion , and it directed thu commissioner to mniiu no appeal on its behalf against the Cullom bill. The telegram of Air. Gnf felts was cntir. 17 unwarranted , niu without foundation in facts. It was n piece of impudent nssumptiou on the commissioner's part , whose object was to commit Omaha business men in ndvanc to opposition to n measure which they hat not discussed , considered or passed upon Thu BIK : protests on behalf o tliis community ngitiuEt such at .outrageous. piec'd of trickery' f Sotiator Mandcr-on desiris to vote against the interstate commerce bill ho should be permitted to do so on his own rcsjKineibnity. The nine tailors of Tooloy street who pioelaimod themselves as "wo , Iho clti/.fiis of London , " had nine times more right lo speak tor that corporation hati Sir. Grifl'etU has for "tl-o hundred wholesale houses" of Omaha. CJi-ent A.iiioviettn Women. American womanhood ns n whole is ad mirable. Without disparaging the women of other lands H can bo said with cnliro juslicc that the mothcrs nnd wives of the republic nro unsurpassed , if equaled , in the possession and oxcrcipo of all those qualities which give the sox Us claim to the love and honor of man. In | > uticnt devotion to the duties of domes- Lie life , in lornlty to wifely obligations , in the faithful performance of every ma ternal function , in fortitude , constancy and conscientiousness , the women of America arc the peers of nny. It is not merely n sentiment of national prldo or the impulse of gallantry that prompts this estimate. It is the verdict of nil our history , from the days of colonial trial and hardship , which had their InOucncc in moulding and developing the charnc- lur of woman as well ns ot man , to this day of national greatness nnd power. In every step of the republic's triumphant march American womanhood has played its part and made its mark , always nt- loMing its inuto integrity , faith and no bility. What n splendid record is thnl of the wives and mothers of the men who pnvo us independence , and es- Inblishcd the republic on an endur ing foundation. What trustful aovo- t4on , what palioul faith , what uncom plaining endurance , what courage and sacrilicc were theirs. Is it not just to say that Iho record has no parallolv lu the great conflict for the preservation of the union woman's faith , courage , sacri fice and labors xvere of service to the iibu beyond all estimate. The victory might have been impossible without her encouragement and help. Her fortitude nerved the heart of the soldier , her faith inspired his patriotism , her work re lieved him of many hardships. The aid societies whoso beneficent olliees every living veteran will attest , wore of her creation. She kept vipil m every hos pital , ministering with gentle hand and whispering words of comfort ami hope. Her welcoming smile greeted the return ing warriors and made dearer to them the hospitality of si grateful people. The debt of the nation to the noble women of that perilous epoch cannot bo computed m vulgar figures , und its liquidation can bo made only with the gratitude und reverence of those who are enjoying and are yet to enjoy the blessings ot freedom in a perpetuated and indissoluble union. The great women of the republic , HIOAO whose characters illustrated the highest qualities of womanhood und impressed themselves upon the history of their times , cither by individual notion or the influ ence they oxcrlcd upon others , are al most as well known to the student of the nation's history us the great 1110:1 : whoso names they bore. Mary und Aiartha Washington , Mrs. Madison , the mother of John Quiiicy Adams , arc all familiar examples of the best womanhood of America. Their wisdom , their virtues and their worth have beeu allotted by Ihoso who were best qualified to know nnd appreciate them , and nro of imper ishable record. There were others of wuom less is known , but who performed their duty no less faithfully and bore thomsolvo.-i in all the circumstances of their life work no less nobly , in our own day nro three representative Ameri can women who will merit a prominent place in the pages that record the bravo labors nud honorable victories of their sex. Mrs. John C. Fremont , Mrs. tar- ! Held and Mrs. Logan will occupy u large and conspicuous space m the gal lery of the great women of thn republic. There have been none more worthy of such distinction , none to whom posterity can point with greater pride us examples of a high and trim womanhood a trusl- ful , devoted , earnest und helpful woman hood pre-eminently honorable in every aspect and greatly Useful. The example of such women cannot bo lost , but it would bo well ii it were more generally and freely employed us an incentive and inspiration to the rising generation of girls who are to be the. wives and mothers of the future. The poet has truly written : r.lTi-s oft-Tdiil men nil romlml ua , Wo caii umlio our lives stibhmo. And equally is it true that in the story of the faithful , earnest and useful lives of truly great women there arc lessons which their sox might learn to its inli- nite prolit. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Tin : Hr.r.'s mammoth edition of this morning has for the tlrst time called into active use both of our lightning Web presses , which have a combined capacity of printing trom 25,000 to IJO.OW ) eight- page papers per hour , and could , if wo were publishing a four-page paper , pro duce Irom 50,000 to 00,000 copies of .suoh u paper every sixty minutes. It will take fully eight hours' steady run of the two lightning presses to complete thu print lug of this double-sheet edition.

This edition would cover u strip of land ono yard wide for a distance of 11U miles , in other words , Iho imprint upon the edition would cover n seclion 220 miles long by three fool iu width. Tnr refusal of the president's physician to permit him to attend the Logan ohse ijuios is the strongest evidence yet given Hint Mr. Cleveland's euso is really suri ous. The personal rotations betwcc.ii the president and the dead Senator hud boon of the most cordial nature , and undoubt edly no ordinary circumstance would huvo prevented Mr , Cleveland from pay ing the last duty to the dead , particularly when to do so did not require him to leave Iho capital. The only conclusion can bo that Iho president is not only a very sick man , but thai his condition is such us will not allow him to take the slightest risk.

LOGAN IN PEACE AND WAR His Unwavering Love for Grant from Bel- mout to Mount McGregor , HIS REVENGE ON SHERMAN. Unrelenting Hatred * mill UtillincMiiK Friendships The Jlfltisli Cab inet rMiulitlc Ailnm B.I. ilonu'B Letter. Is'tnv YOKIC , Doc.0. [ Correspondence to the HIK. : ] The death of Logan recalls ono or two circumstances intllentivn of his character with which the world may nol bo nlto cthcr familiar , nt Icnst In thu light In which they appear to mo. Grant tells in his "Memoirs" of his anxiety nbout Logan's position at the beginning of Iho war. Jlo was approached b.y Ihoso who wished him to allow Logan nnd Mo demand to address his regiment , and as both of these had boon prominent democrats , ho hesitated nt Ilrst to give the permission i but ho found Logan's speech full of licr.y patriotism , lagan's action at this crisisUrunt often declared , had prodigious inllucnco with thu people of that entire portion of Illinois ; his per sonal popularity undoubtedly contributed to keeping "Kgvpt , " ns the region is called , loyal to the union. The occasion of Logan's speech was the lirst meeting between these two men. destined to be so closely associated in polities as well as war. war.When I first went ( o ( Jrant the praises of Logan were constantly on his lips. 1 had never met TIIK HI-ATVOUTSTIKK : : OHxr.itAr , at the time'ami Grant never tired of telling mo his history. So , too , when 1 wrote a volume on Grant's early cam paigns , I got all my information In re gard to Logan Una hand from Grntjt. He traced lor me Logan's cntiro career by his own side at Relmont , Donelsou , Corinth aud in.thc Yickbburg campaign ; nnd always said that Logan and Crocker were the two best generals from civil life that the war produced. On iho death of Mcl'herson , Sherman nominated Howard , who was the junior of Logan , to the command of tins Army of the Tonnep.-ee , which Logan , was then holding temporarily. Grant did not agree with Sherman's ' estimate of the re lative ability of Logan ami Howardbut ho refused to interfere with Sherman's choice. ] x > gin : was bitterly disappointed yet ho remained and served with un flinching y.cnl under the man who had been his junior , though Hooker at the same time and for the s-aiuu cause , re quested to bo relieved. This was not the only instance of mag nanimity in I.OCAN'S C'AKKKlt. In December , 18ii ( , when Grant became - came impatient at what ho thought the needless delay of Thomas at Nashville. Logan was directed to take command of the army of thu Cumberlanduud .started to obey the order. This was the greatest promotion ho hail yet received , amlou'ered that opportunity for separate distinction which every soldier covets ; but when ho arrived at Louisville , ou his way from City Point , ho received the news of Thomas's great victory , and instantly tolegrapheu it to Grant , proposing that he. sliotild now himself return to his for mer subordinate command. In General Sherman's Memoirs ho de scribes Ulnir and Logan as "political generals , " and assigns that as thu reason why ho nominated neither for the com mand of the army of tbo Tc.ino.ssoc. The expression was unfortunate and gave great olleiiso to both ollieers. 1 have no doubt that Sherman himself afterward regretted its UMS ; but once uttered , the ini.-ehief could not bo undone , Logan w as as firm in his enmities as his friend ships , and he neverlorirave Sherman this slur upon his military reputation. Jn Iho course of time ho became a member of the senate , and in all military matters his influence was almost commanding. It was his voieo which decided that Sher man should be retired from the command of the annv at the ago of sixty-four , though Sherman's friends , and many , or rather all , who were simply grateful for his transcendent .servicesstrove earnestly for Ins retention. Hut Logan prevailed. It was a bitter revenge to set aside so eminent a man , his old commander , in the prime of lii.s powers , and in the face of the worldas punishment for a few hasty words of ill-judged criticism. So too I.OOAX WAS unir.i.UNTiN'rs in his pursuit of 1'itz John 1'ortor. He came nearer quarreling with Grant on this point limn al any oilier slago of their long intimacy. 1 happened to bo in Washington a. day or two after Grant's lirst letter in behalf of Porter was made public , aud Lognu spoke to mo very bit terly on the subject ; more harshly in dued than I over cared to repeat to Grant , though doubtless what was said was meant for repetition. Jut ! J did not wisli to bo the means of creating a rupture , and merely told ( Jrant that Logan felt very sore. MCach maintained what ho thought the proper course , and after a while Logan's asperity , at least toward Grant , was softened , though ho never ceased to condemn ( Jrant'u notion. Hut their relation was hardly interrupted , and linally became as warm again as ever. On Grant's sldo there had never , in deed , been any coolness , nor perhaps la coolness the word for Logan's fooling ; it it was heat ; heatlowards I'orlcr , that boiled over oven on Grant. Hut Grant was very grateful to Logan for his political as well as military ser vices. Iu the final effort for .1 "third term , " Logan's action was as important , and as steadfast as that of any other , und Grant never forgot those who stuck by him in this critical emergency. Ho was profoundly interested in the struggle , und the friends who fell away tneii were nuvor forgiven , nor were ihoso who remained staunch ever forgotten while ho lived , When ho wrote his "Memoirs , " ho took pains to say wlml ho thought would gratify Logan , ho enlarged ( hu passages that described Logan's excellencies - collencies ; ho was determined to paint him in the liveliest colors. His heart was in the tribute that ho paid his friend , and all the more because of the hhmln of dill'crunco that had passed across their life-timo intimacy. Loiran was wasI.OVAl. . TO Oil INT when business misforlmio and calumny came ; and in the last months of hin life Grant often spoke of Logan , always with warmth and admiration und nllbctlon. The picture of these American worth ies , both lypienl results of democracy , suggests by contrast the aristoorntio contest - test now BO prominent in England , and thu characters of some of the important politicians there. . The Bo > n-usAi'j.T : oi' iiAKiioi.ru ciinicmu. , with Iho ellccU it may produce , recalls other changes in other cubinots not M ) long ago. Tlio greatest break-up prior to last year was in 1878 , when Lord Derby nnd Lord Carnarvon left Lord Hencous- Hold's government because they could nol follow nim In nU foreign policy. Lord Derby had beeu so important when this very cabinet was Jormed , that ho was openly named by many for jts chief , but with considerable magnanimity ho put away the proposition , Uenconsliold was not a lord nt the time , nnd it was thought lhal Ihe English would prefer a peer for premier ; but Derby said to Sir Francis Goldsmith , who repeated tlio remark to mo ; "Thosewho had foughl the battle ought to carry away Iho prize ; " a maxim not un like that now considered so derogatory in American politics : "To the victors belong the spoils. " So the CErl of ancient do- grco took oflico under the political ml- venturer. Lord Salisbury , at the same time , inndo his formal submission to Disraeli ; ho had deserted his colors long before , nnd vowed never to servo in the same cabinet with the Jew again , but both the peers were brought to terms , nnd became subordinates of Disraeli , In course of tlmo the eastern question came up , and as the 1'ussinns advanced on Constantinople Disraeli perceived thut he could make nn issue which would bo popular in Kngland ; but for a long while Ills cabinet did not follow him. There were discussions within and rumors of rupture without. Salisbury and Derby especially were conservative by temperament and position , nnd the pronounced policy of Disraeli neither commended ilj-olf'lo Ihelr habits of mind nor conformed lo their political tenets. Those noblemen arc connected by n peculiar relationship. Lord Salisbury's tathor was married a second time to n woman much younger than himself , A WOMAN WITH A 1I1MOISV. : i daughter of Dclawnrr. Jt was said thnl in her youth she preferred a pouni- lc * lover , but. had been forced by her family into Iho greater match with the Marquis of Salisbury , lint her early preference faded ; perhaps its object died ; al any rate no more was said of cither in the social history of Ihe time ; and she now formed an intimate friendship with the present Lord Derby , then Lord Stan ley , who visited her house regularly , and every Sunday fora decade his place was by her fireside , with the sanction of hus band. Lord Stanley's father disapproved the intimacy aud it was known to bo dis agreeable to the children of Lord Salis bury by both his marriages. 1'lnully the elder marquis died , nnd the present man came into pos.-ossion. Lord Derby , though morn than forty years old , was still unmarried , the world said , for the ssnko of Lord Salisbury , but ho did not now propose a closer connection. Ho had a peculiar awe of his father , whom ho had offended in his youth , nnd it was thought ho was unwilling in middle age lo contract n union winch that father disapproved ; just as , though he was known to enter tain many liberal opinions , ho remained a member of the conservative party , of which his father during thu latter part of his lifo was chief. Hut Lord LVu'by died , mid the now carl still remained for a while in the consi-r- vutivo ranks. He did not , however , wait long to marry I.AIIV sAt.isiiritr , who had become a middle-aged woman ; and it was thought very line in him , a great peer , with an ancient title and enormous estate to sacrifice all hopes of a direct heir. This deference to his father and regard for the woman whoso name so lonir had been coupled with his own , are among the rare instances in the pres ent English aristocracy when the ancient maxim has been regarded "Noblesse oblige. " The now Lady Drirby was a clover wo man in certain ways , though she 1ms never seemed to aid" her latest husband politically ; socially llioy both thought , 1 suppose , ho needed no aid. The female cleverness was displayed nt the time of the marriage , in her own behalf. The dowager went to the now Lord Salisbury and was asked the loan of the family carriage for the wedding ; ho surely could not wish , she said , the Marchioness of Salisbury , his father's widow , to marry n Derby except with aristocratic ceremony. Lord Salisbury certainly did not wish her lo marry Lord Derby at all , but the sug gestion was adroit , ami ho conceded what his step-mother asked. Next the wily woman of the world by some means or inllucnco persuaded Ihe ipioeu to con sent that she should bu married in St. James' chapel , which was only possible by special laver of her majesty. This signified that the queen did not disap prove the marriage ; so that with royal nud family sanction the new Lady Derby dolled tlio world , and began a fresh ca reer. She was still the mother of the younger brood of ( "Veils , Lord Salisbury's halt brothers and sisters , who followed her to her now home , and Lord Derby became a sort of Klep-falher on en re moved to Lord Salisbury who was nearly us old as himself. These two noblemen , two of the most eminent in the peerage for ability and character , as well as rank and wealth and lineage , both , ns 1 say , in 187 $ . found themselves in Disraeli's cabinet , and must have been surprised every time they looked at each other there. Hut the world supposed thut if either abandoned plncu at this Itussian cri.s'iH , it , would be Lord Salisbury , who had once before de fied Disraeli , and only submitted after long and urgent entreaty of his political friends and his ambitious wife , lint the unexpected always happens , and Salis bury sided with his chief ; when it , was seen that Derby was recalcitrant. Again his action was was attributed to his wife , who saw that if Derby deserted the con servative colors there wns no one to suc ceed Disraeli but her husband. The noble relatives had a violent quarrel in cabinet , nnd carried it out in ouo ot thu most digrneel'ul scenes that has occurred in the house of lords in recent years. Lord Derby announced in Ills plnco that ho had determined to withdraw from the government , and Lord Cnrua- von accompanied him , but contrary to the cour.-e of Lord Kandolph Churchill under .similar circumstances , Derby re- fniiueil for several days from slating the reasons for hh course ; ho did not fuel at liberty to do this without the positive sanction of 'Ilir. QL'KKN , which meant , of course , of the prime minister. In a few days , however , iho permission was given , anil then occurred tlio circumstances I Jiavo mentioned. Lord Salisbury in tones sullioieutly loud to bo heard all over , "tho most august assemby in the world" gave his noble rqlativo Ihc lie , and compared him to Titus Ontca , perhaps the most odious character in their whole history to Englishmen. rjSinco then , tbejjeogunto peers Imvo never spoken to each other , and Lady Derby has forbidden her children by the lirst Lord Salisbury to viHilllieirbrolhci's house. Lord Derby was minister for for eign all'iuro at tlio time of his secession , aud Salisbury was al once promoted to thai place , from the secretaryship of India , with the inevitable Miccession to tlio preniiurnhip. Ho became oxtremelv nnd personally intimate with his rhiof and former onuniv , who conferred on him the garter within the year. Thn now Lady Salisbury entertained at the foreign olllee whore the former Lady Salisbury had received a month or two ncforo , and everything was dtmo to intensify and ao- cunluiito thu breach , which has never yet boon healed , In a year or &o Lord Derby was In ( ILMSTOSI.'S t'AUISin1 , and wo all know that when Disrnell died Salisbury became , as he hud in- londed , chief of the tor.y party , -'id ' IH now prime minister of Kiiclim < j. Ho swallowed his hite : , and ho is a bitter , vindictive , violent man ; J > n recanted Ins opinions , but he got the reward of h\u \ t'lmq-serviug ; while Lord Ddiby , who snerilictsci plnco and the sure prospect of prc-emiucnco to his collectionsremained for a while a second rate member of iho liberal government ; nnd now , whuii thn situation of nllaira makes it now impOM > i- blu for him to follow Gladstone in his radical and repented innovations , Derby is thrust not only out of oilice , but out of theehuiiceof il altogether. For he cannot or will not emulate Salisbury's example nnd boi'vo under iho man ho hated and do- spisod. Thus the nobleman who has re peatedly displayed the qualities which aristocracy is bald by Us ndmirors es pecially to foster , has oulluivd in every thing mil Ihu estimation of honorable men ; and lie , who full of personal wrath and Ecorn , tram plod on his individual sentiments ; and convictions for the SIIKO of plnco nnd power has already twice been premier of England Disraeli's Career i * unothur aristocratic I'o.sfon to the finmo eflccf , which Lord Knndolph Churchill has uvldontly studied well. He d < \ pises convictions nud prin ciples in pub''e ' ' life , skips froni'onn posi tion or doctrine to nnothor which will soonest secure him his personal reward , breaks up n cabinet or n parly so long ns ho mnv receive pro-iinlnence ; nnd alto gether the high aristocracy seems to mete to descend in politicto quilo ns ignoble nets as any known in Washington or Al bany , or , perhaps , Now 1'ork. The ele vating ollVcts of birth nnd rank are no more apparent in public than in private affairs. Salisbury , however , now has n bitterer cup to drink than he over compounded for another , for ho only maintained his sent on the uncertain plank because Churchill sal at the othe.r end , and Lady Salisbury , who bitterly resents , they ssy , the conduct of Churchill , may remember that she oneo intrigued with his father and mother to induce her own husband to enter Disraeli's cabinet. Vet Salis bury and Churchill are two of the noblest names in England. 1 prefer Logan aud Grant. ADAM DAIIIIAU , Tlio Ninth Wonilor. Jlitr/fdtffim / I'jrt 1'rr.w.
